This is the Pythagorean theorem where the 2 legs of a triangle squared add up to equal the squared hypotenuse (a^2 + b^2 = c^2)

The equation would be
12^2 + 5^2 = x^2

144 + 25 = 169

The square root of 169 = 13

Answer - 13 ft

Stan has made a $125.30 monthly deposit into an account that pays 1.5% interest, compounded monthly, for 35 years. He would now
MissTica
The future value of a monthly deposit A=125.30 at annual interest i=0.015 per annum for n=35 years compounded monthly is given by
FV=A((1+i/12)^(12*n)-1)/(i/12)
=125.30(1+0.015/12)^(12*35)/(0.015/12)
=$69156.05

The annuity formula is given by
Payment = r(PV)/(1-(1+r)^(-n))
where
r=interest rate per period = 0.015/12
PV= $69156.05
n=20*12=240
so
Payment = (0.015/12)<span>69156.05/(1-(1+0.015/12)^(-240))
= $333.71  per month.</span>

I need answers for 1 and 2
Snowcat [4.5K]

1. Slope 3/4, through (4,-1)

y = 3/4 x + b

-1 = 3/4(4) + b

-1 = 3 + b

-1 - 3 = b

-4 = b

y = 3/4 x - 4

2. Slope = - 1/2, through (3,0)

y = -1/2 x + b

0 = -1/2(3) + b

0 = -1.5 + b

0 + 1.5 = b

1.5 = b

y = -1/2 x + 1.5
